    ...too much shit to list.
    That looks like utter shit. You can definitely get more caster out of those and still keep camber in check

    @BudMan if they are letting you in the shop bay, try this:

    Max the front eccentrics shorter (head of the eccentric is closest to the frame as possible) and max the rear eccentrics longer (head of the eccentric is farthest from the frame as possible). This would be max caster.
    Then rotate the rear eccentric shorter until you can get camber in spec.

    Finally pulled the trigger and put a deposit on a front and new rear hc dual swing out bumper. Can't wait to go pick it up from billy in 10-12 weeks.

    I'll be putting up my brute force rear hc bumper with swingout for sale once I have the new one in case anyone is interested.

    Rockies on fire early in the season....first in the west, Story just got his first grand slam off Cueto (his first slam allowed). :frusty:

    Have you tried El Cerrito Tire near Costco? Their usual alignment guy is pretty good. Always able to squeeze 3.5 caster or more out of my TC arms. And their shop monkeys actually use torque wrenches.

    Not sure why I'm suggesting them though. They don't allow me in the shop anymore.
